foaming seas

these photos of the foaming sea are a good representation of how I feel inside.

crashing and swirling and being carried on the waves

watch out or you'll get wet

swirling patterns distract me

and oops I get washed up

but I am resilient, and with the next big wave I'm back in the sea.....

apparently this kind of foam is called spume, and is formed in the same way as the head on a pint of beer, due to thousands of tiny bubbles within the sea. I kind of like the idea of those tiny bubbles, each one bobbing about in the surf, sounds fun.

this house hunting nonsense is hard work you know, and perhaps I need to cut down on wine/caffeine a bit............. oh and somehow I also need to convince my hubby that buying a house with dodgy wiring is not irresponsible - it's potential, and that the houses he keeps picking out with matchobx sized gardens might be alright for him, but I'm not going if we have to have one of those....... I feel that rental is the only option until we can find a compromise. that or I'll just have to buy the house with the dodgy wiring whilst he's out at work, anyone got any advise on forging signatures........

My sister swears she will never sell and buy all in one go again. When they moved down to Devon they went into rented for 6 months and took their time to find the right place to buy. It was so much less hassle and worth every extra penny spent on rent, etc.

We rented before we found the right place, it was the best thing we did. Maybe in this financial climate it may make sense to not rush - I have never been able to forge a signature I'm too honest for my own good sometimes!

We rented before we bought our current house, that was 12 years ago. The rented house was great, I was sorry to leave it. It would give you breathing space to find the right house to suit all your needs. Good luck in your search whatever you decide on. xx

Good luck with your decision. My sister used to say... the right one will come along and it will be fate... Used to drive me nuts!! I think renting's the way forward unless you get 'that feeling'. Not sure what 'that feeling' is but everyone said we had to have it!

Good luck with the house hunt. Sounds like you have a lot of dilemmas. Hope you find the right house soon! I think next time we move we'll definitely look into renting first - co-ordinating the sale and purchase last time round was hard!

I live near the sea in Northumberland where I drink a lot of tea, bake gluten free cakes, make quilts, and walk on the beach. The rest of the family includes J - understanding hubby, Miss K - 17, and E - 15.
